Please ask me to be the emperor

Ever since Zhang Shun occupied Lushi County, he has been sending people non-stop every day to find a place to stay in the deep mountains and ravines.

With nothing to do, Zhang Shun, in addition to socializing and monitoring the three surnames of Wang, Li, Lu and Bai County Magistrate in the city, also specially checked the fish scale books and other information in the county government. He found that Lushi County was only a small county town with a circumference of only four miles, but it had thirty-two miles of households under its jurisdiction.

Mingzhi Yili has jurisdiction over 110 households, that is, the registered population of the Lu family is 3,520 households. Although this place is a land of barren mountains and rivers, it has a vast area, a suitable climate, and a large population.

What's more, this volume was compiled during the early Ming Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Hongwu. Although there were additional surveys in later generations, it has not changed much. However, according to past dynasties, after the war ends, the population will experience an explosive growth, and the actual population of the county may be more than four or five times the registered population.

Just as Zhang Shun was compiling relevant information about Lushi County, there was a sudden sound on the door. I saw Wukong pushing open the door, running in and shouting: "It's not good, master!"

Zhang Shun was startled when he heard this. He quickly put down his books, stood up and asked, "Why are you so scared? But there are officers and soldiers coming?"

"Not at all!" Wukong scratched his head and said with a naive smile.

As soon as Zhang Shun heard that the situation was not urgent, he knew that this guy was shocked again. He stabilized his mind before shouting sharply: "What's going on? Why are you so panicked!"

"Master, your servant Liu Yinggui was caught by a thief. The thief said that he wanted you to pay for three hundred taels of silver, so why not just cut him in half and kill him immediately! That Liu Yinggui always liked to play with me, and I was afraid that he would be killed. After that, no one will play with me."

Zhang Shun laughed angrily when he heard this: "Who is so bold? How dare he be tied to my majestic King Shun!"

It turned out that Liu Yinggui, following Zhang Shun's orders, had taken about ten people everywhere to look for a place to stay in the past few days. This man was a servant given to Zhang Shun by his grandfather Liu Laotou. Although he was not very clever, he was honest and loyal, and was trusted by Zhang Shun.

He did the same thing this time and didn't dare to slack off at all. Along the way, he climbed over mountains and ridges, inquiring and searching everywhere.

I never thought that Liu Yinggui was young and ignorant, and didn't know how to hide it, so he accidentally violated the local taboo.

It turns out that there is Baochu Mountain seventy or eighty miles southeast of Lushi County, and there is Baodu Village on the mountain. There is a village owner in this village named Chen Taojin, who is a big local businessman.

Just because he accidentally heard that a villager had discovered a gold mine nearby, he tied him up. They were tortured day and night until the location was found, and then they were killed and the gold mine was taken away. In order to prevent others from getting involved in this gold mine, this guy simply gathered two to three hundred miners, slaves, and farmers. On the one hand, they protected the gold mine, and on the other hand, they committed murder, robbery, rape, and robbery.

After this guy had done all the bad things, he was reported. In order to avoid the government's encirclement and suppression, he led these miners, local ruffians and others to build a Baodu Village on Baochun Mountain in front of Zhuangzi.

The terrain here is difficult and difficult to attack. He was defeated several times by the government in encirclement and suppression campaigns, so this person became more and more rampant.

That day, Liu Yinggui led his soldiers to Sanchuanji, not far from Baodu Village, to inquire about the nearby terrain, and he learned about it. Liu Yinggui had an accent from another place. He just thought it was a government spy who came to look for him, so he led thirty or fifty gangsters to ambush Liu Yinggui on the road he must pass.

Liu Yinggui was caught off guard, and his soldiers were not wearing armor, so they were immediately defeated by the opponent. Except for two or three people who escaped, the rest were either killed or captured by the other party.

After this guy captured Liu Yinggui and others, after interrogation, he learned that he had captured the wrong person, so he wanted to kill them casually.

Liu Yinggui, who was as honest as a piece of wood in the past, suddenly became enlightened and shouted quickly: "I am a servant of a wealthy family. In the past few days, my officials have returned from the capital. They are preparing to return home in fine clothes and find a place with elegant scenery to build a villa to settle down." . If you are looking for money, you can send someone to send a message to Lushi County, and the master of the family will definitely make sure that your work will not be in vain!"

Chen Taojin couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this: "You have a son in your own family, how can you be worthy of being redeemed by your master's family?"

Liu Yinggui said: "I am from the old master, and now I am following the young master here to do things. Firstly, to assist him, and secondly, to supervise him for the old master. If I die easily, the old master will definitely blame me."

Chen Taojin couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this: This is really hard to find, and it takes no effort to get it. My parents didn’t give me the good name ‘Gold Rush’ for nothing, so I, Chen, can make a fortune!

Therefore, Chen Taojin selected one of the captured soldiers, cut off his left ear, and released him to Lushi County, asking him to deliver a message to Zhang Shun.

Zhang Shun listened to Wukong's story and didn't believe it at first. Liu Yinggui had been following him for many days, like a dull gourd. How could he say these words?

When Zhang Shun saw the soldier who had one of his ears cut off, an unknown karma arose.

This soldier was quite brave. Even though his head had just been bandaged briefly, he didn't say a word. But his dark face was somewhat pale due to excessive blood loss.

Zhang Shun couldn't help but admired: "What a real man! What do you call him?"

The man endured the pain and replied: "The name is not worth mentioning. It is a great shame to be injured in the hands of a thief! I will not kill this thief, and I will not be a human being. If the general wants to remember me as a nobody, he can call me 'a little one'." Ear' it!"

Zhang Shun was stunned when he heard this. Although it was a bit inappropriate, he still couldn't help but secretly said: "I hope you will never meet a character nicknamed 'Black Cat Sheriff' in this life!"

Seeing that his injury was serious, Zhang Shun quickly asked him to go down and rest. Then he summoned the generals and asked, "How should this matter be handled?"

Song Xiance stood up after hearing this and said: "This matter is easy to hear. The lord's troops are here to conquer everyone with force. If you ignore it, you will show your cowardice and will definitely be underestimated by other powerful families! Not to mention Grandpa Liu Yinggui and the lord I have the grace to save my life, but if I don’t save my life, it would be unreasonable and unreasonable for me to do so!”

Zhang Shun nodded after hearing this. This was really his opinion, but he still hoped that other generals would also express their opinions. One person can calculate the shortcomings and two people can calculate the strengths. They can check for the shortcomings and make up for them, and make a comprehensive plan. Secondly, the people under his command who have no experience in the world can just take this opportunity to slowly cultivate their thinking and planning habits.

Sure enough, Zhang Shenyan stood up after hearing the words and said: "What Mr. Song said is true. But we are strong dragons, and Chen Taojin is a local snake. Since ancient times, strong dragons have not suppressed local snakes. This matter should be considered in the long term. In my opinion, We should first find out this person's identity, background and strength before making any calculations."

"What does Mr. Zhang mean?" Zhang Shun asked quickly after hearing that there was something in his words.

"This incident happened suddenly, maybe it was just an accident, or maybe the big family members of the Lu family took the opportunity to test the general's strength. Therefore, I think this matter must be dealt with in a thunderous blow, and this person must be dealt with neatly, in order to deter other unscrupulous people. Generations!"

Zhang Shun nodded when he heard this and agreed: "Zhang Gong is really a mature man who seeks the country. This is true."

Unexpectedly, these words angered one person. He snorted coldly and said: "What kind of old people are trying to seek the country by flattering people? In my opinion, some young people have no knowledge. All you need to do is to raise the red flag." The barbarian artillery fires indiscriminately, and under the whole nest, are there any eggs left?"

Zhang Shun turned around and saw that it was none other than Zhang Daojun, who had rarely spoken since joining Zhang Shun's camp.

This chapter was updated too slowly, and I didn’t find a good angle to enter it. It took me a long time to write, so I guess I only have this chapter tonight, I’m sorry.
